They have SoJu or HoT to content with. Creo might do well since it's mirror. Bjarke if he can get to Castle and do this tier 3 magic. ;D

Grubby has to win vs 2 rounds of strong elfs. Both Carefly and Deadman are very strong. Carefly also beat grubby during his tour to Taiwan. I hope carefly will win though the chances are not great.

Carefly I don't know but Deadman would lose once more vs Grubby

Creolophus < fnatic.Vankor (Could go either way, Creo is very very good but hasn't been able to practice as much due to school connections, and Vankor is in great shape so I say he wins)

U5.Pato < fnatic.Bjarke (Another close one that could go either way. Pato has become soooo good as of late, but I don't know if he has what it takes to topple Bjarke)

WE.Sky > mTw.Zerter

mTw.winner.reset > lol_vx_xd

TmG)Homerunball < WE.Soju (Again, could go either way...)

4k.ToD > U5.Levin

SK.Hot > bgx.justdisel

mordack_pa < Giacomo

4K.FoV > Nightwolf

wnv.XiaoT > Neytpoh

4K.Grubby > Myth.Carefly

SK.Deadman/apm70 > Alt)flyshow

bu_hero < 3LFear

Mouz.BenQ.Shortround > janby

WE.Suho > mTw.Wizard

Mouz.Philbot < SK.Insomnia

------------------------------------------------------------------------

fnatic.Vankor > fnatic.Bjarke (Another close one, could go either way)

WE.Sky > mTw.winner.reset

WE.Soju > 4k.ToD (Could go either way...)

SK.Hot > Giacomo

4K.FoV > wnv.XiaoT

4K.Grubby < SK.Deadman/apm70 (Could go either way, but I'm going with "an upset". Deadman has been practicing hard in Germany as of late and should be well prepared)

3LFear < Mouz.BenQ.Shortround

WE.Suho > SK.Insomnia

------------------------------------------------------------------------

fnatic.Vankor < WE.Sky

WE.Soju > SK.Hot

4K.FoV < SK.Deadman/apm70 (Could go either way, but I'm going with "an upset" again.)

Mouz.BenQ.Shortround > WE.Suho (Very tough one to call... I'm going with Shortround out of American pride, but would not be surprised either way)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

WE.Sky > WE.Soju (So hard to call, but Sky has been really impressive as of late.)

SK.Deadman/apm70 > Mouz.BenQ.Shortround

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sky > Deadman

Soju > Shortround

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Those are my predictions, but admittedly the bracket could look completely different as so many of these matchups starting in round 2 are insanely close. Grubby could of course win the whole thing. So could ToD, or HomeRunBall, and maybe a couple of others. There are so many possibilities. But this is just what I think has a good shot of happening. I wouldn't bet a lot of money on any outcome though.

I wouldnt be surprised if he did either, but I picked Sky over him because Sky's timing is just incredible. And against Night Elf, if you have good timing it can be extremely difficult for the Night Elf to win.

But I would not be surprised if he did. I'd personally love to see that.

we all would like sky to win but honesetly he has to count on the uders to be eliminated by NEs before he has to play them. Seriously if he can't win fury then how the hell can he win against Fov?

suho better man up and win against wizard, that chump denied him acon4 title.

xiaot => nothing to worry about ^_^ but i don't expect him to take a title.

Theres actually another thread for War3 WCG, so its more than one page.

Also take into account a large portion of the Brood War WCG threads are ACTUALLY about Bunny, therefore indirectly being about WarCraft 3, and you have a much higher number than there should ever be at a "Brood War" website =]

Surprised Levin took a map from ToD.

A little surprised Creo won, but I guess if he is in shape (which I doubted) then it's not a surprise at all, so hopefully he is, in which case I'd predict him to beat Bjarke.
